CPUTune on MacOS BigSur Beta 10

[abarsotini]

Hi,

Is it possible to use CPUTune on MacOS BigSur Beta 10?

Is there a version of CPUTune already compiled for Download, Or some kind of tutorial on how to compile the source code by XCODE?

Tks. Armando

Have you tested the extension with Big Sur?

[abarsotini]

yes, it doesn't work...

[nimamox]

Thanks. Did you go through all the steps, disabling csrutile and removing IOPlatformPluginFamily.kext? Could you elaborate on what the problem is? Can it even be loaded with kextload? Do you get a kernel panic?

Where can I find these instructions?

does it work for Big Sur?

Cannot remove IOPlatformPluginFamily.kext using the steps in https://portugnole.blogspot.com/2020/05/running-macbook-without-battery-lets-go.html, the CPU always runs under 800MHz in BigSur.

Remove IOPlatformPluginFamily.kext by following the instructions below: https://grafxflow.co.uk/blog/mac-os-x/delete-ioplatformpluginfamilykext-macos-big-sur

And instead of CPUTune use VoltageShift. For me the commands are:

$ ./voltageshift loadkext
$ ./voltageshift turbo 0
$ ./voltageshift write 0x1FC 0x04005e

Thanks a lot. Just wonder what MSR register 0x1FC and value 0x04005e are.
